Modifying a configuration, Saving and restoring iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE controller configurations

Page 267 highlights

Modifying a configuration The module has the following major areas of configuration: • Management port configuration requires the use of the following commands: ◦ The "set mgmt command" (page 236) ◦ The "show mgmt command" (page 253) • iSCSI port configuration requires using the following commands: ◦ The "set iSCSI command" (page 235) ◦ The "show iSCSI command" (page 247) • Virtual port groups configuration requires the following commands: ◦ The "set VPGroups command" (page 239) ◦ The "show VPGroups command" (page 262) • LUN mapping requires the use of the "show lunmask command" (page 252). Saving and restoring iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE controller configurations Saving and restoring a configuration helps protect your work. You can also use a saved configuration as a template for configuring other modules. Persistent data consists of system settings, virtual port group settings, LUN mappings, discovered FC targets, and discovered iSCSI initiators. To save a module's configuration and persistent data: 1. Generate a file (HP_StorageWorks_MEZ50_FRU.bin) containing the saved data (see page 2-12) , by entering the fru save CLI command. This command stores the file locally on the module in an FTP directory. 2. Transfer the saved data from the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module to a workstation by executing an FTP utility on a workstation. The following example shows an FTP transfer to get the saved module configuration data: c:\> ftp 172.17.137.102 Connected to 172.17.137.102. 220 (none) FTP server (GNU inetutils 1.4.2) ready. User (172.17.137.102:(none)): ftp 331 Guest login ok, type your name as password. Password: ftp 230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply. ftp> bin 200 Type set to I. ftp> get HP_StorageWorks_MEZ50_FRU.bin 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for 'HP_StorageWorks_MEZ50_FRU.bin' (6168 bytes). 226 Transfer complete. ftp: 6168 bytes received in 0.00Seconds 6168000.00Kbytes/sec. ftp> quit 221 Goodbye. Restoring iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module configuration and persistent data 1. Transfer the saved data from a workstation to the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module by executing an FTP utility on the workstation. The following example shows an FTP transfer to put previously saved module configuration data on the module: c:\> ftp 172.17.137.102 Connected to 172.17.137.102.

Modifying a configuration
The module has the following major areas of configuration:
Management port configuration
requires the use of the following commands:
The
“set mgmt command” (page 236)
The
“show mgmt command” (page 253)
iSCSI port configuration
requires using the following commands:
The
“set iSCSI command” (page 235)
The
“show iSCSI command” (page 247)
Virtual port groups configuration
requires the following commands:
The
“set VPGroups command” (page 239)
The
“show VPGroups command” (page 262)
LUN mapping
requires the use of the
“show lunmask command” (page 252)
.
Saving and restoring iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE controller configurations
Saving and restoring a configuration helps protect your work. You can also use a saved
configuration as a template for configuring other modules.
Persistent data consists of system settings, virtual port group settings, LUN mappings, discovered
FC targets, and discovered iSCSI initiators. To save a module’s configuration and persistent data:
1.
Generate a file (
HP_StorageWorks_MEZ50_FRU.bin
) containing the saved data (see page
2-12) , by entering the
fru save
CLI command.
This command stores the file locally on the module in an FTP directory.
2.
Transfer the saved data from the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module to a workstation by executing
an FTP utility on a workstation.
The following example shows an FTP transfer to get the saved module configuration data:
c:\>
ftp 172.17.137.102
Connected to 172.17.137.102.
220 (none) FTP server (GNU inetutils 1.4.2) ready.
User (172.17.137.102:(none)):

(6168 bytes).
226 Transfer complete.

221 Goodbye.
Restoring iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module configuration and persistent data
1.
Transfer the saved data from a workstation to the iSCSI or iSCSI/FCoE module by executing
an FTP utility on the workstation.
The following example shows an FTP transfer to put previously saved module configuration
data on the module:
c:\>
ftp 172.17.137.102
Connected to 172.17.137.102.
